Default Downpipe Heat and Clearance Questions need answers

Downpipe Heat and Clearance Questions need answers

I have a turbo downpipe about 1" or so near a support. My question is will it be an issue with heating up too much or should I make more clearance so that things dont heat up.

I also wouldnt mind ceramic coating it or wrapping it or making a heat shield, just want to see the opinions out there on whats safe and whats not

thanks

just the radiator support or the actual radiator? Either way, i doubt it'll matter.
Hell my downpipe is about 1cm away from my radiator, infact, i had to trim my slim fan housing to get it to fit and the temps rarely go above half.
